Modifying rims is illegal as it alters the registered characteristics of the vehicle, and thus will incur penalty points. Below is relevant information about vehicle modifications: 1. Required materials for the procedure: The materials needed for color change procedures are minimal, including the vehicle's license, the owner's ID card, and the vehicle registration certificate (green book). If a friend handles the procedure on your behalf, their ID card must also be presented. 2. Permissible modifications by the DMV: Body color changes are allowed but must be reported within ten days; wheel rims and brake calipers must maintain the same dimensions as the original vehicle; front and rear bumpers can be modified but require reporting to the authorities.

Is the Airbag Scrapped Once It Deploys?

An airbag is considered scrapped once it deploys. As a disposable device in vehicles, the airbag loses its effectiveness after deployment because the chemical reaction that occurs during inflation is irreversible. Once the chemical reaction completes, the inflator becomes unusable, necessitating the installation of a new airbag. Precautions for using airbags include: 1. Airbags must be used in conjunction with seat belts; 2. Maintain an appropriate distance from the airbag while seated; 3. Do not place objects in front of, above, or near the airbag; 4. Adopt good driving habits to ensure a safe distance between the chest and the steering wheel; 5. Avoid high temperatures, and store airbag components properly; 6. Do not modify the airbag system or its surrounding layout without authorization.

What causes the Macan's tire pressure warning to keep malfunctioning?

If the tire pressure monitoring system keeps issuing warnings: it indicates either overinflation or underinflation of the tires, requiring immediate pressure inspection. Low tire pressure often suggests air leakage or tire damage. A tire pressure warning is a critical safety alert that demands urgent attention, as tires are the primary factor in vehicle safety. Below are key details about tire pressure monitoring: 1. Warning mechanism: The system operates on the principle of gravitational balance. It displays normal status when tire pressure is balanced. If a puncture causes air loss and disrupts this balance, the monitoring system triggers an alarm. 2. Tire pressure importance: During level-road cruising, vehicles must overcome rolling resistance from the road surface and air resistance. Tire pressure significantly affects the rolling resistance coefficient. Underinflation rapidly increases this coefficient because low pressure causes greater tire deformation and hysteresis loss. Therefore, maintaining proper tire pressure ensures optimal vehicle performance.

What type of vehicle is used for the D license test?

Three-wheeled motorcycles are used for the D license test. The D license qualifies individuals to operate three-wheeled motorcycles, representing the highest level of motorcycle driving qualification. When applying for this license, the training vehicle is typically a three-wheeled motorcycle. Mastering the driving skills for this type of motorcycle enables the driver to operate all standard motorcycles. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Requirements for applying for a D license: 1) Chinese citizens aged 18 or older who pass the medical examination. 2) Applications must be processed locally and cannot be handled in other regions. 2. Test content: The motorcycle license test is divided into four sections, from Section 1 to Section 4. Section 1 covers theoretical knowledge about motorcycles, consisting of 50 questions worth 2 points each, with a 45-minute time limit and a passing score of 90. After passing Section 1, candidates proceed to Section 2, which includes practical tests such as slalom and curve riding on a motorcycle. Section 3 is conducted simultaneously with Section 2 and involves following a route specified by the examiner. Section 4 focuses on safe driving practices and traffic rules, similar to Section 1, and is conducted via computer-based testing.

What should be paid attention to when driving in windy weather?

When driving in windy weather, you should pay attention to the following: 1. Use the windshield wipers carefully to avoid scratching the glass; 2. Slow down appropriately, correctly identify the wind direction, hold the steering wheel firmly to prevent the driving route from deviating due to wind force, pay attention to the lateral stability of the vehicle, minimize overtaking, and if driving against the wind, be aware that sudden changes in wind direction or significant bends in the road may suddenly reduce wind resistance and cause a sharp increase in speed; 3. Do not turn on the external circulation of the air conditioning, and keep the windows closed. Turning on the external circulation or opening windows may allow external impurities and dust in the air to enter the car, polluting the air quality inside; 4. Be cautious of falling objects from heights to avoid being hit.
